Yay Kat! I think I should have gone to HARVARD, b/c I agree with the Harvard Business Review article about having a HUSBAND that support’s my career. For those in the HIVE not interested in reading the article, the GIST is that you should stay SINGLE if you can’t find a spouse that will support you in your career. I interpret this as generally supporting you in whatever decisions you make, whether it be a career decision or move, or a decision to enter a different career, such as rearing your children with the spouse. If the putative spouse is NOT supportive, STOP, do NOT pass GO and do NOT collect $200. This is a Monopoly expression for those in the hive that are NOT familiar with bored games. BTW, I also LOVE Twister as a way to meet guy’s, as long as you do not wind up with your face in a funny place on their bodie’s. FOOEY!
I repeatedly make the Swedish Death Cleaning argument to my mother…and it gets me nowhere. I’m an only child and she’s single, so all the bric-a-brac, sets of fussy china, jars of spare buttons, everything, will fall to me. I’ve told her more than once I’m bringing in an estate auction team and that’s the end of it. “But some of these things are very nice and/or expensive! Why would you get rid of them?” “Because I don’t want a china service for 18 with frilly pink flowers on it” falls on deaf ears. Oy.
